Polysorb Disk springs delivery program De [mm]: Di [mm]: disc springs are annulus discs stressable in the axial direction, which are turned over in the shape of a disc in the axial direction. disc springs provide a more favorable space usage than other spring types. They are particularly suitable for designs that demand a small spring deflection. + When not to use Polysorb Disk springs? For the implementation of specially flat load deflection curves that are possible with metal only with considerable complexity and expenditure (slotted versions). For compensation of axial clearance and manufacturing tolerances For vibration compensation For noise dampening When an antimagnetic material is required For electrical and thermal insulation When no corrosion problems should arise When lubrication is not necessary For low weight For low space requirement – When not to use polyserb disk springs? When constant spring forces are necessary over a wide temperature range When high spring forces are required The spring deflection of the disk spring is relatively small. Therefore a number of disk springs are combined in practice. Alternatively layered disk springs enhance the spring deflection in proportion to the number, whereby the overall spring force is as large as the force of the individual disk spring. To increase the force, the disk springs can be layered in parallel as a spring packet. Chemical resistance Polysorb disk springs are resistant to many chemicals. iglidur® A500 has a higher resistance than iglidur® J. Medium Resistance iglidur® J iglidur® A500 Alcohols + + Hydrocarbons + + Fats, oils without additives + + Fuels + + Diluted acids 0 to - + Strong acids - + Diluted bases + + Strong bases + to 0 + Humidity absorption The low humidity absorption allows them to be used in wet or humid environment. Polysorb® disk springs absorb humidity. Thereby their mechanical properties alter. In the worst application that can be thought of - extremely long application in water - Polysorb® disk springs still exhibit high spring force. iglidur® Standard environment saturated in water J 18 15 A500 24 23 Increased operating temperature Increased temperatures lead to the decline of stiffening in polymers.

iglidur® PEP, metric d1 [mm]: d2 [mm]: iglidur® PEP, inch d1 [inch]: d2 [inch]: When to use iglidur® PEP plain bearings? When a low-priced plastic plain bearing system is required When freedom is required from shaft material and shaft surface For the protection of expensive and sensitive shafts For extraordinary wear resistance with rare and slow movements. For constantly low coefficients of friction When freedom from corrosion is desired When not to use them? For high surface speeds iglidur® J For high loads iglidur® G iglidur® Q For high temperatures iglidur® V400 iglidur® X iglidur® Z When low-clearance bearings are required iglidur® P iglidur® X Maintenance-free plain bearings usually distinguish themselves by their ability to glide free of lubricants without any further additional layer on the shaft. In these systems it is obvious that shaft materials are as important as the bushings. igus® blazes a new trail with an enclosed and maintenance-free plain bearing concept. iglidur® PEP is an entirely novel lubricant-free plastic plain bearing system with an inner and outer ring. Special feature: The running partner is determined by the inner ring and for the first time, the material and surface finish of the shaft are insignificant. Even thread, rust or scratches do not affect the long-term reliable function. By the specification of the gliding partner and extensive series of tests, the long-term behavior of the bearing system can be precisely forecast. With the PEP polymer plain bearing, the inner ring rotates with the shaft like in ball bearings Relative movements of the shaft to the bearing are dispensed with. This protects the shaft surface from wear and saves costs. Another plus point: Even the most sensitive or unusual materials for the rotating shaft can be used with these new polymer bearings. The PEP polymer bearings are thereby absolutely free from material-dependent corrosion. Wear resistance The wear test results are absolutely convincing with loads up to 5 N/mm². Here the PEP polymer bearings attain values that are virtually comparable with those of the most wear-resistant plastic-steel bearing systems. An exceedingly satisfying result when you consider the costs saved by dispensing with the otherwise essential surface treatment of the shaft. The constantly low friction-coefficient level is also an advantage for the user. As the glide partners are fixed by the defined system, their tribological data too are accurately predictable. The coefficients of friction of the lubricant-free bearing are not determined any more by the shaft materials or surface conditions. If necessary, the coefficients of friction can be further lowered by additional minimum lubrication. Detailed test information with a wide range of lubricants are available and can be had from igus® on request. iglidur® PEP bearings operate independent of the shaft material. iglidur® PEP bearings consists of an inner and outer bearing.

iglidur® flange bearing d1 [mm]: With this design it is possible to use the iglidur® high-performance bearings where housing bores with no precise tolerances are possible. When to use iglidur® flange bearings? When you want a screw flanged bearing When a clip bearing solution is not satisfactory as a sheet metal feedthrough When there is a housing with very rough tolerances When the tight fit of a press-fit bearing is not sufficient as an axial securing When not to use them? When an additional angle compensation is required igubal® flange bearing When a screw connection is not possible iglidur® clip bearing When a large guide length is necessary iglidur® G General features With this design it is possible to use the iglidur® high-performance bearings where housing bores with no precise tolerances are possible. The design enables high loads with minimum demand on the precision of the housing. iglidur® maintenance-free flange bearings are available in four materials - iglidur® G, iglidur® J, iglidur® X and iglidur® A180. Thus, with this design, a very wide range of applications - from the universal bearing through the highest wear resistance or temperature resistance (up to +250°C) up to FDA-compliant bearing solutions - can be covered. Installation Dependent on the stressing capacities, various mounting types are used. For low radial loads, it is enough to mount the iglidur® flange bearing with just two screws on a surface. For higher radial loads, it is advisable to support the iglidur® flange bearing in a bore on the reinforced side in the load direction. Large tolerances are permitted for this bore, as it is only to additionally support the iglidur® flange bearing. In order to support still higher radial loads, the iglidur® flange bearing can be press-fitted with the longer side in an H tolerance bore. The additional screw connection secures the firm seating of the bearing in the housing. For the mounting of the iglidur® maintenance-free flange bearing, no special tools or devices are necessary. The alignment of the bearing in multiple mounted shafts is easily possible at the installation. Available materials: iglidur® G, iglidur® A180, iglidur® J and iglidur® X The mounting of the iglidur® flange bearing: Simple and safe iglidur® flange bearing d1 [mm]:
